Does anyone know where in the GTA I can pick up Cycle Canada magazine?

Dude on the burgundy 2000 Suzuki Marauder at Lakeshore & Park Lawn. I was on the red CBR500R. Nice chatting with you at the lights.

Dude on a stretched out tri-colour CBR on Dupont around 5:30 PM today. Love the look of you bike! I was on a red CBR.

Question - what kind of a stand is that. Looks like it fits on the swing arms? I'm looking for something similar for my CBR500R. Where did you pick it up and how much was it?

Thanks for all the good wishes and great advice. About the road rash, i called it a rug burn, not road rash. Basically I have a loonie sized rug burn on my knee from rubbing on the inside of my Kevlar jeans. That's it. So I think I did well there. My jacket is scuffed up but luckily other than...

Not the GTA but try Memphis Fire BBQ in Winona, just outside of Stoney Creek/Hamilton - http://www.memphisfirebbq.com/

Absolutely agree with that statement. A more experienced rider might have been able to stop upright.

So, I got in a little accident last night with the bike. I went out for a short ride around the neighbourhood and was heading south on a local road. There was a bus a bit of a ways in front of me who pulled into the bus stop lane and I kept going in the left tire track. As I was passing the...

Absolutely right. Way too many variables to make a blanket statement that single disk braking systems are less effective. I know on my CBR500 if have no issues getting the back end to lift under hard braking.

I am going up but later in the day. Was thinking of going North then taking Hwy 7 across to Woodbine then North again. Are there any nice routes? Hwy 7 doesn't seem to interesting.

I was there as well. It was a first time for me. I have a new CBR500 and although nice, I was drooling over the beautiful retro bikes there. RetroGrouch, we didn't meet but from the pics, I remember you came in on a Monster 900, right? Looking forward to coming out to the next one.

Hiya. Newbie rider as well with just over two months of experience and also on a CBR500R. Going to The Moto Social event on Wed night which is just around the corner at High Park if you'd like to meet other riders. Check here for more info - http://themotosocial.com

Oh wow. I loved that track and all of it's configurations. Spent lots of weekends there participating in lapping days and Solo 1 events. Made great friends and shared many laughs. Hopefully somebody will pick it up and turn it around.

Yup. Studio Cycle Group. Nice guys and the rental gear is nice and clean. Two thumbs up.

Hi there. Definitely not too late. I just started late may and I'm 46 with a CBR500R. Nice bike, your Ninja. Ride safe!

This is fine. Reverse is definitely geared differently. I'm usually feathering the clutch and brake pedal at the same time finding the right balance depending on the desired speed. When I'm reversing, pretty much the only time I'm off the clutch and on the gas is if I'm going straight back and I...

As a newbie, 2-3 seconds, maybe, before I would say you're riding the clutch and burning it out. However, once you get the hang of it, shifting really happening in less than 1 second. It's not rushed, but smooth. Takes time to get there tough. It really comes down to getting enough time behind...

That is pretty interesting. It goes to show that reliability isn't everything when it comes to making sales. Clearly there are other factors at play including marketing, branding and feel.

I bought a 2013 CBR500R this May as my first bike. I don't have any experience with other bikes to compare it to but found the bike to be smooth, comfortable and with sufficient power for city and highway driving. Although I haven't ridden on a 600RR, I did sit on one and it is a completely...

Cartwright? Cartwright? Sorry...just couldn't resist.
